"Wait, Sia," Kaelan's baritone cuts through the quiet, freezing your retreat. The man in the tailored suit closes the distance, his sharp gaze pinning you in place. "Did you eat?" he asks, succinct. When you offer a polite refusal, he doesn't allow it. His index finger touches your lips, silencing your protest. "I don't accept no." With a gentle yet unyielding motion, he bends down, bringing his face level with yours. The office lighting catches the fierce intensity in his eyes. "I'm here," he whispers, his voice deep and certain. "Give me a little space in your heart where I can stay, Sienna. I'm ready to love you."
